Veneto was part of the Roman Empire until the 5th century AD. Later, after a feudal period, it was part of the Republic of Venice until 1797. For centuries, Venice ruled over one of the largest and richest maritime republics and trading empires in the world. After the Napoleonic Wars and the Congress of Vienna, the Republic was annexed by the Austrian Empire until it merged with the Kingdom of Italy in 1866 as a result of the Third Italian War of Independence. In addition to Italian, most inhabitants speak Venetian, which is divided into five varieties. The Veneto region, located in the north-east of Italy, is a highly sought-after destination due to its main tourist attraction: Venice. A golf holiday in the region is very easy, as there are international airports in Verona and Venice. Almost all golfers combine a visit to Venice with a round of golf. Golfing in Veneto is amazing because courses are built in a great scenic setting overlooking, for example, the Dolomites, Lake Garda and the Adriatic Sea. Veneto boasts many exciting, challenging courses, rich in tradition, all of which respect the peculiarities of golf. There are 28 golf clubs in the region, most of which offer a relaxed atmosphere. Special courses: Golf della Montecchia and Golf Club Ca’Amata. In addition, there is a variety of beautiful golf resorts in the area. In Veneto you can play golf all year round. From May to October conditions are excellent.

Amidst 200 hectares of woodlands in the estate of the noble Papafava Antonini dei Carraresi family at the foot of the Euganean Hills, this 18-hole course was created in 1990 and is a succession of emotions due to the spectacular flora and fauna found there. When blooming in spring, the course explodes with colors and fragrances, whereas in autumn, the magic foliage – going from brown to yellow and red in contrast with the green lawns – makes players feel as though they have been projected into a living painting. Designer Marco Croze was able to create a demanding layout, finding the right balance between environmental beauty and technical demands: wide open spaces, woods and numerous bodies of water scattered along the course refine and beautify the panorama, making the game more demanding. Hole 15, known as La Regina, or the Queen, is an unforgettable par 3 of 150 meters which crosses a large lake and reaches the green enclosed in a majestic cathedral of trees. Hole 3 is also very beautiful, a par 4 left dogleg with a water hazard ready to penalize those seeking to cut the curve, and the out of bounds on the right side of the fairway. The clubhouse was created from a rustic building from the 1600s, elegantly restored and furnished with an Anglo-Saxon golfing flair. The privileged position close to the spa area of Abano and Montegrotto allows the natural wonders of the area and the beauty of art cities such as Padua, Venice and Vicenza to be explored within the range of a few kilometers. Technical Details Course: 18 holes, Par 72, 5906 meters Architects: Pete Dye and Marco Croze Topography: many water hazards Distinctive features: traditional course with old trees and wide fairways. Pro’s comments A very spectacular course created in a 19th century park. Several of the “soft” holes such as Hole 1, contrast with the “infinite” ones, as with Hole 18. Hole 15 is a masterpiece, a spectacular par 3, with an island green located at the end of a lake in the middle of a wood; you feel as though you are playing in an enchanted world: amazing.
